The problem appears to be a regression that was introduced in commit
9a9c6478

 "nfsd: make NFSv4 recovery client tracking options per net".
Prior to that commit, it was safe to pass a NULL net pointer to
nfsd4_client_tracking_exit in the legacy recdir case, and
legacy_recdir_name_error did so. After that comit, the net pointer must
be valid.

This patch just fixes legacy_recdir_name_error to pass in a valid net
pointer to that function.
